I've heard of a couple artists who painted on raw, unprimed canvas, or the backside of commercially primed canvases (the raw side). What are the differences between the two? Do certain painting processes work better on either primed or raw canvas?

I know there was a big controversy about the details of this book (I have not yet finished reading it). I've heard Catholics being really upset about what is saidin the book. While I am Catholic, I don't know a whole lot about my own religion. So what about the book has everyone so upset? Please nobody try to convert me. Just answers to my question please.

I'm a writer, and I happen to be gathering ideas for some short stories I intend to write. I'm also very curious as to what the public likes to read. I want to know what you think I should write a story about. What kind of story would you like to read? Any ideas out there?

In Fall of 1994, I was a Liberal Arts student at the Univeristy of Louisiana, Lafayette. I had to read a book in my English class. I remember the main character was a boy named Sonny, the story took place in New Orleans in up town, and there was a death in the family and the body was kept in the house till the funeral...does anyone remember reading this book, know the title or know where I could get a copy? I remember I had to buy the book from the Professor....but I don't remember the Professor's name.

I just want to get your opinions of what this picture means to you. I'm not sure what to think of it. I really want to figure it out. I know the history behind centaurs and Chiron but I don't know if any of that has to do with this picture:

I'm a teenaged girl that writes in her free time. I mostly write fanfiction and it tends to lean towards the homosexual couples in the shows.

What I want to know is if America is ready for a gay romance novel? I mean Gays need romance novels too!

What's your opinion?

Does anyone know a good way to find open local community theater auditions? Something more effective than scanning the bulletin boards of coffee shops...?

I'm an 18 year old author, I've never had any of my work published. I write fan fictions and post them on such fansites, but I also have my own work. But, I've seen websites where you can send in your work and make web books. Can anyone direct me to any website that can at least read my work and tell me if it's even worth it maybe even publish it?

First Christopher Paolini wrote Eragon, then Eldest. I've heard that the third book will be called Empire, but when is it coming out?

I have a flat metal panel that I want to paint a scene on. It will remain indoors.
What is the best kind of paint to use?
I was going to use my acrylics, but I was afraid it would chip off after time.
Thanks!

I'm not looking for anything specific, just an example. I'm thinking something along the lines where a human changes into a wolf or some other animal like that. Got any ideas?
